ESPN pulls Simmons column

For whatever reason, ESPN pulled Bill Simmons' usual Friday afternoon NFL picks column. I'm guessing it was a column filled with political statements about the upcoming election. Simmons, a known Obama supporter, probably bashed McCain in some way. A few months ago, Simmons was set to record a podcast with Obama, but the idea was scrapped at the last second. Presumably one of the muckety-mucks at ESPN was a McCain supporter. I bet something similar happened here.
